ECAC mobile - 16 years ago
Don't know whether I'll be able to access this on my blackberry; this comes just in time for the Sunday game that I must miss, darn it all - ECAC Hockey announced today (Jan 16, 2008) the debut of a new mobile scoreboard with live score updates from games played at each league rink via www.ecachockey.com/m.by MINIteam8s - Hockey
Re: Jan '08 Status - Belts Unification - 16 years ago
Good question - The ECAC Belt held by Quinnipiac is next defended v. Rensselaer on 02/01/2008. For what it's worth - we play RPI on 16 Feb and Q'pac on Fri, 22 Feb. We'll know more about 9:30 pm this Friday whether the planets are aligning for unification!by MINIteam8s - Hockey
Jan '08 Status - Belts - 16 years ago
Here's an item of interest from USCHO Forum - Quote from Ralph Baer: Current holder of The Belt is SLU; next defense v. Cornell 01/18/2008 Current holder of Ivy Belt is Cornell; next defense v. Brown 1/25/08 Current holder of NY Belt is St. Lawrence; next defense v. Cornell 01/18/2008by MINIteam8s - Hockey

Re: Field Turf & Bubble on Schoellkopf? - 17 years ago
My bad, thinking we might need a bubble once the season starts. It can't snow in Ithaca once spring sports season starts, can it? Then again, we might not be able to get it down in time for the start of the season if the anchors are buried in snow and ice! ...end of the smart aleck remarks...thanks, that makes senseby MINIteam8s - Other Sports

Reilly83 - thanks for this background Harding - great idea; would be nice to see the findings archived hereby MINIteam8s - Hockey
Re: Field Turf & Bubble on Schoellkopf? - 17 years ago
Great find (buried at the bottom of the news column)... will this be a la sucks' bubble thanks to 13 generous alumni? We saw the bubble when we were in Boston for the hockey game. We wondered about the fans' seats ... or maybe they don't need a place for fans?by MINIteam8s - Other Sports
Re: A belated happy birthday... - 17 years ago
From Cornell Facility Services site - Carpenter Hall, which was completed in 1957, houses the Engineering Library and the administrative offices of the College of Engineering. This building was a gift of Walter S. Carpenter, Jr., who was associated with E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company from 1909 until his retirement as their chairman of the Board in 1962. Anyone know more about his connecby MINIteam8s - Hockey
Re: A belated happy birthday... - 17 years ago
My question, too. Someone here in the past 51 years must know the name of the benefactor. Lynah surely surpassed his / her wildest dreams! We'll do some behind-the-scenes investigating to see what can be found out. Quite a return on their investment. And 50 years later - the renovation worked hard to keep best of the original rink.by MINIteam8s - Hockey

Re: Riley Nash commits to Cornell - 17 years ago
Very good, Grammar Police, good catch...my bad. But wait...according to my paperback dictionary, used for crosswords and Scrabble nowadays, implies is to hint or intimate while infers is to make a deduction based on facts or indications. In this case might not infer be the better verb?by MINIteam8s - Hockey

Re: Riley Nash commits to Cornell - 17 years ago
It's more like we say, "My 3 kids are in college" while a Brit would say, "They are all at university." In fact my kids are all studying at universities. It seems Canadians use 'scholarship' meaning 'accepted into a US NCAA program'. Interesting cultural differences using a common language.by MINIteam8s - Hockey
Re: Riley Nash commits to Cornell - 17 years ago
This infers that acceptance to any NCAA program is referred to as 'scholarship'..."makes a total of seven scholarships accepted by SilverBacks players this season."by MINIteam8s - Hockey

Re: ECACHL scores 3/16 - Q v. SLU - 17 years ago
USCHO's Jayson Moy works through many scenarios in his Bracketology 2 article. Here's one - "Here's a situation where a three-way tie results in two teams being put out of the number-one seeded band.

Re: A few musings from a new member... - 17 years ago
Thank you for providing these details from your inside / outside perspective. By that I mean...the inside (exceptional) access to information and (required) sensitivity for what should be shared online...combined with an outsider's objective, comparative perspective on Cornell vs. other programs. It's easy for us Faithful to obsess...ECAC, coaching, recruits, leadership, the CU system, etc.,by MINIteam8s - Hockey
